    Isn’t it cheaper to fly to Europe, visit a doctor, and fly back instead of going to the ER?

    Also for “normal” treatments. Getting a baby costs like $2000 in Germany without insurance. Plus flight and hotel for two months you are still far below 10K in total cost. 😁

      I mean, yes, but in the case of flying to another country, you need the money up front. In the US, if you can get into the ER (some people do in fact get rejected), you don’t have to pay the out-of-pocket expenses until after.
